Using Planeswalker abilities twice
Asked by joga 13 years ago
I have a Tezzeret, Agent of Bolas with 4 loyalty counters and cast his ultimate ability, tezz dies. I cast another Tezzeret, agent of bolas and use card:Tezzeret's Gambit bringing his loyalty to 4. Can i use his third (ulti) ability again for the second time?

The restriction on planeswalker abilities is that you may not activate two loyalty abilities of the same planeswalker permanent in one turn. Two different planeswalkers may have one ability activated each on each of your turns.
TL;DR: Yes.

Do the people who ask these questions get put up to it by admins or something? my 8 year old sister knows most of these answers, LEARN to play the game please or go back to Yu-Gi-Oh

Not everyone understands every nuance of the game. Asking a question is better than constantly misplaying and misinterpreting the rules.

No its because he has a small dick! haha and used too play yugioh. im glad i havent seen him comment on anything else! Everyone here is nice and supportive, not everyone is on the same level... Magic has 1000+ rules, rulings, different abilities the only way to get the answer to the problem is to ask the question no matter how obvious it may seem. and hold on speaking of planeswalkers couldnt you use Venser, the Sojourner ability more than once if used on himself?

No because you have to use Planeswalker's abilities as sorceries, and he would come back at your end step: (you can't play sorceries during your end step). You could do it to reset his loyalty, but he starts out at 3, so it wouldn't really make sense to do that (because if he was at 1, he would go back to three anyway because that's what he starts at)

Planeswalkers are by no means regarded as basic, comparatively speaking. There are a lot of common questions asked about them, and since there are only a handful and they are a recent addition to the game, it is logical that those questions would be so common.
On the other hand, it is also kind of a basic rule of the site that you be polite when posting or refrain from saying anything. This is a community-driven place, so maintaining an appropriate atmosphere is, well, appropriate.

Of course, the loyalty ability rule is specific to each permanent. The new Tezzeret you played is a different permanent than the one that died, and since it had not activated a loyalty ability that turn, you may use any ability he has enough loyalty to use.
